Biography
Myeong-han Kim was a Major in the Korean Peoples' Army, and rose to become Director of the DPRK forces in the Korean DMZ in 1999. A seasoned veteran, he responded to the thrusts and feints of the CIA and US-backed South Korea for years and became an extremely dangerous soldier.

During the 2009 United Nations invasion of North Korea, British intelligence agency MI6 tracked him down to the north of the city of Haeju. Northwest of Haeju on a long dirt road, Kim set up a defensive position of T-62 tanks, FROG-7s, MD-500 Scout helicopters, and M1978 artillery batteries.
